After a long time i decided to try out xxhighend again with the latest version 0.9z6.1c on my laptop. Everything is working fine exept i have a stange problem by loading different tracks with the same filename in the playlist and play them.

For example i have two diffenent albums with tracks called:

Album1-Track1-Track2-Track3Album2-Track1-Track2-Track3-Track4

I put them in the play list and start to play the first 2 tracks of album 1. Everything went okay and music is playing. Then i stop playback And make a new selection of track1&track2 from album 2. Then hit play but to my suprise i don't hear track 1 from Album 2 but track 1 from Album 1.

I have tested it with different tracks with the same tracknames. But with every try i had the same problem. It looks like xxhighend didn't check if the newly selected track1 is different than the one played before and assumes that is not a new selected track but the old one and so starts to play the old (already in memory) track1.

So it looks to me that xxhighend only checks on the name of the file (track) and not on it's properties like size, location or crc code etc. to determine if it's a different track (file) or not. But maybe i'm totally wrong by this...

Hope i explained the problem clearly to you with the above example and that you can reproduce the problem (bug?).

It is not really intended, but it is so, yes. It depends a bit in what format the the source is, and IIRC if these were FLACs it goess all right (or just not and WAC is all right). Anyway :

Would you be explicitly testing things (like two normal track names from different locations) you must explicitly clear the "caches" by using that little button close to the bottom under the Load button (the rightmost one).When you just play such a playlist from top to bottom this doesn't work of course. Then you'd have to stop after Album 1, use that button and continue with Album 2.

If it's intended to function that way it's no problem for me. I thought maybe it was a bug and you would be interested to know. I had only the problem when i put two albums in the playlist which are not converted with track names because of leg of cddb information. The change of happening is small but i had it by hand so i thought i report it.

Cheers with your new version of xxhe. I hope to have the pleasure to try it very soon!

Nah, I meant with "not intended" that obviously this is not much convenient, although the chance is normally small or inexistent that it happens. But it just is so and a tough thing to solve (because it is about caches and they work upon the unique name (which names are not unique in your example)).
